Gootium 21101 Canvas Backpack – Vintage Outdoor Rucksack, Coffee, Small

Gootium canvas backpack – vintage outdoor rucksack (coffee, small)

Meet a straightforward canvas rucksack with a bit of personality — it looks like it’s already done a few miles but is raring for many more. The garment‑washed canvas feels soft to the touch while still being properly tough, and the metal buckles give the pack that smart, vintage vibe. If you like classic styling with sensible pockets and no fuss, this one’s worth a look.

features and details

• Hardwearing, thick canvas with a garment‑washed finish that softens the fabric and gives a lived‑in look without compromising strength.
• Sturdy metal buckle fastenings and reinforced seams help the bag cope with daily use and the odd downpour – it’s practical, though not a specialist waterproof rucksack.
• Thoughtful organisation: generous main compartment, front pocket with button closure, internal zip security pocket and two side pockets with button closures for a water bottle or brolly.
• Laptop‑ready: the larger size will take up to a 17‑inch laptop; if you’re looking at the small size, do check your device measurements first.
• Approximate weight for the larger size is around 950 g; actual weight may vary slightly by size and finish.

dimensions and sizing

There are two sizes to choose from. Small is roughly 12″ x 8″ x 15″ (about 30 x 20 x 38 cm, ~25 L), while Large measures about 13.5″ x 8″ x 17.7″ (around 34 x 20 x 45 cm, ~31 L). These volumes are approximate — they’re a useful guide when you’re deciding whether the bag will carry your kit. If you plan to use it for a laptop, double‑check the small size measurements so there are no surprises.

who this is for

Perfect if you want a stylish daypack that doesn’t shout “technical gear” but still performs for everyday life. Ideal for students hauling books across campus, commuters with a laptop and lunch, or anyone off on light weekend trips — no faffing about with complicated compartments. Quick note: not recommended for children under 12.

practical tips and care

To keep that lovely patina, spot‑clean the canvas and avoid soaking it. The garment‑wash finish is part of the charm, so heavy scrubbing will dull the look. If you’re out in proper heavy rain, pop valuables in a roomy dry bag — the pack isn’t a fully waterproof shell.

About laptop protection: there’s a sleeve for a laptop, but it isn’t heavily padded like a dedicated laptop bag. For fragile or pricey kit, add a slim protective sleeve for extra peace of mind. All told, this is a reliable, good‑looking canvas rucksack with proper pockets and sturdy fittings — a bit of vintage charm that actually works.
